[Adnexal torsion during pregnancy. Diagnostic and therapeutic problems in Burkina Faso].
The authors report a case of adnexal torsion during early pregnancy. Because of a late diagnosis they had to practise an unilateral adnexectomy with a conservative medical treatment of the pregnancy. They recommend an early surgical treatment, that will save the adnexa and permit a normal evolution of the pregnancy. In a young patient, the loss of an ovary may be a tragic event.
